Latin text

Occurrunt turbae cum floribus et palmis Redemptori obviam:
et victori triumphanti digna dant obsequia:
Filium Dei ore gentes praedicant,
et in laudem Christi voces tonant per nubila:
Hosanna in excelsis.

English translation

There came a multitude with flowers and palms to meet our Redeemer:
and to pay the homage due to a triumphant Conqueror:
The nations proclaim the Son of God,
And in the praise of Christ their voices are like thunder in the clouds:
Hosanna in the highest.
